[bars] FCC License renewal - successful

[Bill Poulin]

Congratulations Marla!  You did it! 👏🏻👏🏻👍

Yes venturing into the ULS, if you did not upgrade your information after
notice of FCC Database Upgrade in July 2022 can be a major challenge.

I did the upgrade back in 2022, and downloaded the official copy, saved an
additional and printed a copy with email address and FCC ULS password for
future use.

I have helped many hams near and far with this  procedure.

For those of you who did not upgrade...

Open two windows in your browser.

1.  http://fcc.gov/cores
2. Your email client

Window #1, the cores page, put your email address and Password.  You will
see you have to check your email for a registration number that you must
put in window 1.

Now go to your email and find the email from the FCC.  Locate the 6-digit
numbet and enter it.  Click SUBMIT.

NOW... Go in to the far left box on cores page and enter your email and
password and look on left margin for options.

Payment and Renewals are there.


73,
